The plain- tift alleges that the defendant com- pany has failed to keep its contract to install for him at Colchester in a good workmanlike manner the machinery and equipment for a grist mill which was to cost $750. The machinery was to have been shipped within twelve days from December 7, 1915, and to be in running order within six days from the time of its afrival in Col- chester. Mr. Elgart makes the claim that he pent « considerable sum in putting in tae foundatior for the engine, that the shipments were delayed for several weeks, and that the defendant has re- fused to put the plant in running or- der, so that in consequence he has never been able to operate it.
